The ground-mounted system "Ovra Solara Magriel"
The alpine solar plant "Ovra Solara Magriel" in the ski resort of Disentis is being built on an area of 80,000 square metres at an altitude of 2,100 metres near the summit of La Muotta. The mountain railways in the Disentis ski area will be able to meet their annual electricity requirements for operations entirely with local solar power. The use of the existing infrastructure, such as the electricity grid, simplifies the construction of the solar plant.
The ground-mounted plant will have an installed capacity of ten megawatts and produce 17 gigawatt hours of electricity annually, which is equivalent to the consumption of 4,000 Swiss households.
Construction will begin in spring 2024, with the first partial commissioning planned for autumn 2025 and full commissioning in autumn 2026. The alpine solar plant will provide valuable winter electricity, especially in the cold months.
The project in numbers:
- comes to 2100 m.a.s.l.
- 10 megawatts of installed capacity
- produces 17 gigawatt hours of electricity per year
- Enough electricity for 4000 households per year
- 30,000 solar modules are to be installed
- Equivalent to around 10 football pitches of solar surface
